More Thor Casting! Kat Dennings Joins the Cast!


I'm a big fan of Kat Dennings, so this is welcome news indeed, as the actress has signed on to co-star in Marvel Studios' upcoming superhero flick, Thor. Natalie Portman accidentally let the news slip in a recent interview, and THR confirmed the report later that day. Speculation has been rampant as to the role she'll be playing, but nothing has been confirmed as of yet. All that we know is that she will be playing someone who works for Portman's Jane Foster character.

Dennings first came to my attention in Judd Apatow's The 40 Year Old Virgin, and she's been steadily choosing interesting roles ever since, culminating in what was one of my favorite films of last year, Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist.
